Production

Production Obstacles

8/11/2010

• We had to Decide weather we were going to have other people in our production, we then decided to have just one person in our production.

9/11/2010

• We had managed to film the very first 2 shots of our opening sequence but our battery had died and the clip did not save so we had to re-film it. Also filming in school was a difficult choice of location because as there was many innteruptions as students kept walking past us whilst we were filiming causing us to stop everytime... but we liked the setting because of the shot where he approaches the gate and the shot were he is walking out of a particular block shows that he is in a school.

22/12/2010

• When we were filming and we had not got most of our shots done which was time consuming and caused us to be behind in our filming
• When we were editing all of our clips were not showing so we had to kept restarting the camera
• we had to re-film as our production got lost and did not know what hard drive it was so we had to re-film again.

3/5/2011

• I had trouble merging my clip to my evaluation and i had tried this several of times , then i had ended up just filming my self talking

during our filming we had to re film twice due to the lack of shot that we had, also we had lost our work 

Over the next couple of weeks we tweaked it, filming when we could and developing on the story. I was given the job of editing it all together so the files just got handed to me and I did what I could with what I was given in the time we had left.

Production Successes

8/11/2010

• we had managed to agree who would be in our production and decide on  a location, We agreed that we would mainly have a single character in the opening and the attacker would be kept hidden because this would make the first stages of the movie so that the killer remain mysterious and unknown which fits in within the conventions of a thriller.

15/11/2010

• We very easily took the film from the tape we recorded on to, and imported it into Final cut. once we overcame our problem 

22/12/2010

• We re-filmed with a better script
• We then imported it to final cut easily 
• We both took separate roles and finished merging my clips together

7/1/2011

• Editing going well, added music over the top and sped up the scenes

11/3/2011 

• I spent the whole day in a media workshop 
• I created and added titles
